He sees them; he wants them; he stalks them; he takes them; finally, he kills them. The dangerous psychopath "Heartbreaker" enjoys murdering his victims. He has already chosen the next woman to add to his demonic list. Father Thomas is in confessional when "Heartbreaker" admits he plans to go after the holy man's sister Laurant. Tommy is so frightened he calls his FBI friend Nick Buchanan for help. Nick promises to serve as Laurant's bodyguard until the monster is caught.

Laurant and Nick, the main characters have lots of sizzle; the plot is very exciting and the action swift. The ending is left wide open for Noah's story, the other hunky FBI agent. If Noah Claybourne doesn't have his own book, I'll be very disappointed. ( )

An excellent start to an excellent series. Fans of Linda Howard will love this! ( )

The character interaction is fairly typical of Garwood's contemporary romances. She does a good job of keeping the thriller part twisty. Overall, an entertaining read. ( )
